Faywood Hot Springs, Faywood, NM & Sedona, Arizonia

We arrived at Faywood Hot Springs just outside of Deming, NM and found it to be a lovely Oasis in the New Mexico desert. Faywood Hot Springs was home to a spring water bottling company before it was converted over to a hot springs resort. There are both clothing and clothing optional tubs all beautifully designed and so refreshing after a long trip across the country. We enjoyed every moment we had there soaking in the springs and drinking the delightful spring water.

After Faywood we traveled to Oak Creek Canyon and camped at Cave Springs campground in the heart of the canyon. The next day we toured Sedona, AZ and three of the most popular vortexes. The energy in Sedona is quite remarkable and the scenery is spectacular. Sandstone formations create a red rock canyon effect that is second to none.
